Angers vs Nice Prediction

Angers host Nice on 8 November 2026 at 19:15 in Ligue 1's tenth round. The hosts sit 15th with eight points from nine matches, while Nice occupy eighth place with 14 points. Angers have won twice, drawn twice, and lost five times, posting a goal difference of 9:16. Nice have four wins, two draws, and three defeats, with 13 goals scored and 11 conceded. The visitors arrive in sharper form after a 5-2 demolition of Rennes in their last outing, while Angers fell 2-0 to Lyon most recently.

Form and H2H

Angers have struggled defensively throughout the season and their recent results underscore the problem. They lost 5-2 at home to Marseille, conceded five again in a 5-1 defeat to Brest, drew 0-0 with Lorient, and fell to Lyon. Their sole bright spot was a 2-0 win over Troyes. Injuries to Amin El Ouazzani (groin) and uncertainty around Oumar Pona (calf) further limit Stéphane Gilli's options.

Nice have built genuine momentum after a difficult start. Four wins in their last five league matches include victories over Brest (2-1), Strasbourg (2-1), and Lille (2-1), plus the rout of Rennes. Elye Wahi scored a hat-trick in that Rennes match and has become one of the season's standout forwards. Jonathan Clauss provides width on the right flank, while Mohamed Amoura and Sofiane Diop offer attacking support. Nice have injury concerns with Ali Abdi, Antoine Mendy, and Laurent Abergel sidelined, though squad depth allows Olivier Pantaloni to field a competitive eleven.

In recent head-to-head meetings, Nice hold a slight edge. They won 2-0 away in March 2026 and 4-1 away in September 2024, though Angers claimed a 1-0 road victory in December 2025 and Nice won 2-1 in April 2025.

Best Bet

Nice to win. The visitors have momentum, a clinical attack led by Wahi, and clear psychological advantage from recent results. Angers' defensive fragility makes them vulnerable to Nice's combination play and quick transitions. At 1xBet, a Nice win is priced at 2.12.
